Think of it like the jet sweep.

It wasn’t meant to be.

It's both; that's why the name stuck. The play involves a "hook" and lateral. Old fire engines/equipment were called hook and ladders.

I thought Hardman was called Nicole for 2 years.

It's like "French Benefits" or using the word literally when it doesn't need to be used at all. People are just...misinformed.

Half of one, six dozen of the other.
